#trustthewait
(This was inspired by Pradip's comments on
an old poem of mine, "Anticipation."
It's been a year since...and i still
go back to that poem, to read
his words.....to recall the
countless waitings i
went through in
my life.)
Pradip Chattopadhyay › Anticipation
Anticipation is such a perfect word Sally for the hopeful wait.
Let's hope we come out of it more resilient more humane.
THE HOPEFUL WAIT
We wait for something to
take place...desperately,
we count the days, the hours,
for a wish to materialize,
a small voice whispers
encourages us to hang on,
to not think of the waiting
as a difficulty,
like, a cross to bear,
because.....it is not...
the waiting time, the passing
hours, are journeys where
epiphanies unfold, and clarify
our dimmed perspectives.
while we wait, while battling
adversity and weariness,
we must make sure to fortify
our faith, our determination,
our patience, and not go the
opposite way...
some may not agree...but, there is
wisdom in what could be, where
none is certain...we see its beauty
when recalling the waiting.....life
teaches us to welcome, to embrace
the uncertainty....to trust the wait.
